Creative Life Drawing Short Course
Course description
Course overview
Learn to think like an Artist. Join us for a fresh look at Life Drawing in an exciting new workshop designed to build confidence and ability.
This creative life drawing course uses the human figure as a visual prompt through which students can unlock their own creativity and learn to think like an artist. Over the course of the week will focus on technique and materials in a practical, hands-on class combining traditional Life Drawing practices with experimental drawing ideas and mediums.
This course is a hands-on drawing experience with practicing artists offering group tuition as well as one to one guidance. Students will be introduced to the basics of fundamental drawing, building skill, knowledge and confidence over the course of the day and moving on to explore contemporary studio practice and experimental techniques.
Who this course is for
This course is suitable for all levels of ability, providing a stimulating, accessible environment for beginners and an inspirational fresh look at drawing for those with more experience.
This is a summer-school only short course running only once a year. We encourage early bookings to secure your place.
